Welcome Back! I hope everyone enjoyed a restful Spring Break.

2nd Grade - Today's vocabulary word was Exploit which is a daring or heroic act. The explorer was Frank Thomspon. Actually, Frank Thompson was Sara Emma Edmonds, who disguised herself as a man in order to join the army. Students completed a Quotation Quizzler puzzle for the warm-up activity.

5th Grade - Their vocabulary word for today was Retrieve which means to recover; to find and bring back; to get back. The explorer was Elijah McCoy who invented a way to oil moving parts without having to stop the machine. His invention became known as the "real McCoy". These students completed a Quotation Quizzler puzzle for the warm-up activity. What was important to them was the focus of today's affective lesson. Our last series of lessons on the Industrial Revolution led to today's study of Settlement Structures and how the Industrial Age led to changes in city populations.
